Platform Cricket Inter School Festival Under 9's Cricket Tournament

Platform Cricket Inter School Festival Under 9’s Cricket Tournament Continuing the momentum from winning the Pan London event in 2023 a new set of year 4s Year 3s embarked on 2024 Tournament at The Rectory Field, Charlton. The team progressed from the group to the semi-final and for the second year running the final. The final against Invicta was a tense affair, but some excellent batting and running ensured a 5 run victory was enough to take home the winners' medals.  After a very close, tense game with some excellent cricket played by both teams, Victory prevailed for OLOG by a slender 6 runs. What was particularly impressive was the OLOG children espousing the Roman Catholic values and ethos of our school in resilience, team work and compassion. Even more pleasing was the children thanked the Umpires and Tournament officials unprompted at the conclusion of the day. They were a credit to the school today. Every tournament the school has entered this year has resulted in returning with the winners trophy. This is a truly incredible achievement, and the children should be extremely proud of their sporting excellence and endeavours.  It is absolutely fantastic to see how much the children pride themselves on performing to the very best of their ability at every tournament we attend, the encouragement they offer each other and how much effort they put in to being the best they can be.  Every child should be extremely proud of how they represented the school this year.  The Pan London final will be held in September.

Summer Fayre - 28th June 24

The summer fayre 2024 was an incredible success. It has always been known as the “International day “in the history of OLOG and that was truly reflected in the international food stall where local cuisine from different cultures were brought in by the parents, showcasing the diversity and inclusion at our school. The weather could not have been any better, the sun was shining and the attendance just brilliant. Queues at the entrance slowly disappeared as the children and adults immersed themselves into the fun of many stalls organised by the PTFA. Highlights were the wet sponge stall where children could throw a wet sponge at Mr Small - and Alex.  Other successful stalls being Shoot the Ball, What’s in the Box Hook the Duck, Didi cars, Arts and Crafts, uniform and preloved toys sale amongst many others. A DJ played the latest hits, and the guitar performance was incredible.  At 3.00pm the Irish dancers hit the dance floor followed by many talents at our school participating at the OLOG Talent show. Parents and children were dancing to incredible music in the later hours of the day. The BBQ was lit and that was when the party started. An incredible day for parents, friends, teachers and especially children. Thank you to all volunteers, PTFA committee members and school for making this such a success.

YR 6 TFL Visit

Our Year 6 pupils had an enriching visit from Raphaella, a representative from Transport for London. During her visit, the children learned valuable lessons about the importance of planning their journeys and travel safety. This knowledge is crucial as they prepare to leave primary school and many of them will soon begin travelling independently to secondary school. Ensuring that they are well-informed and confident about navigating public transport will help them transition smoothly and safely into this new phase of their lives.
